Quality education for our children

The key to building a thriving city is to invest in our children. Families living in Toronto deserve to have access to a high-quality education for their children. This means responsive teachers, an up-to-date curriculum, and a well-functioning School Board that listens to the needs of the diverse set of families that make up Toronto.

Jan 15: The Ontario government has just released a directive ordering the Toronto District School Board to make drastic changes to the role of school trustees, and clearing the way for closing up to 100 schools.

In response, the Toronto & York Labour Council has published a list of Five Inconvenient Questions for the Minister of Education. We recommend reading it before attending the Special Meeting on January 19.
